My first reply to Chris was inadvertantly private. I suggested if
there's a time he can leave it go for 10 minutes and see if it
completes, he should. But I guess the followon, which I forgot to
mention, is seeing, after that, what's in /var/log/system.log from the
reboot.

If there were verbose reboot like there's verbose boot, that'd be a
fine answer, but alas....
